[OOC] Welcome Back to the Guild

[Kaga]

Also, I should point out that I may be a bit less focused on GMing this thread within the next few days, mostly due to a new RP I'm trying to get off the ground. However, just because I won't regularly be keeping close tabs on activity flow and the like, that doesn't mean I'm not still willing to manage any issues that may arise. If you're worried things are getting slow or you think I should do anything GM-ly at all, don't hesitate to contact me.

[Neobullseye]

Postage will be done tomorrow. Sorry for not doing it today.

@ Kaga: That goes for the other thingie too.

[HylianRose]

Sorry for the short post. Didn't really know what else to say that wouldn't just be fluff...

[Neobullseye]

Merk... Stupid inspiration, not being here when I need you. I swear, I should just put my muse in a cage or something like that. Maybe I should remove the wings so that it can't fly off whenever it wants to? Alternatively, I could build some kind of extractor device to drain all the inspiration out of it, then use it whenever I need it! >=D

[HylianRose]

If you do it, lemme know. My muse is less than consistent. Ooooor maybe I'm just lazy. Who knows... -whistles innocently-

Just reading this is making my Muse slightly scared. And I mean the Muse with a capital M. o.o

Speaking of whom, I noticed that Muse's group has gone stagnant. I'll be running the usual rounds shortly. (Unfortunate considering I wanted to work on the dino RP today, though... oh, what a busy bee I am.)

You know, the type that helps people at first, but is actually evil all along.

[Neobullseye]

Speaking about being evil: Is it evil if you:
- Make a screenshot of someone's monitor, then use that as the background/wallpaper.
- Close/minimize all programs.
- Hide both the task bar and any and all icons on the desktop.
- Turn off/remove the mouse?
At first glance, nothing seems to be changed. But... yeah. The end result will confuse the poor sap to no end :P

Well no, because turning off the mouse removes all the fun out of it. All they'll notice is that the mouse is missing/broken, and not that none of their icons work. It would be more evil to leave their mouse and watch them try to figure out why they can't click on anything. :P

Yeah, I figured that much out five minutes after posting this; I just forgot to edit the message. Sadly, the prank didn't really work due to the person in question at least knowing something about computers. Now if only I knew the pass of someone else, so that the prank triggers the moment they log in again...

Also, I wanted to simulate a full-system freeze at first. The problem was that the screensaver triggered before the victim came back. Eh, better luck next year.

[HylianRose]

I'm too lazy for April Fools...

On another note,

Sorry. I may not be able to get on much today. Things have started to pile up on me. On top of all of my school work, I may or may not being going to a LARP community this weekend with my boyfriend. So yeah. May not be able to get a post out until next week at the latest. Same goes for when finals start up, I won't be on much. :\

Sorry but that's just the way the cookie crumbles. I'll be on when I can.

So yeah. I'm sorry if it's an inconvenience. That's just kind of the way it is for the time being. If I don't go to LARP, I'll try to be here over the weekend but again, I'll be with my parents so we'll see how that goes.

[Neobullseye]

So... can we just say that Euclid succeeds with his lockpicking attempt, after which the trio goes inside to do stuff?

[Euclid]

If it helps progression, we can.

[Kaga]

Orber says he may need to drop out of the RP or, at the very least, take a long hiatus. Hence why he let his character get lost. I had a feeling this was his reasoning, but since the others in that group tried looking for him, I figured Muse should at least play along until I could confirm that with him.

Now that I have, I'd prefer if the ones in that group would allow their characters to get distracted or something so that searching for someone who simply isn't around to be found isn't the primary goal. Thanks. ^^

[Neobullseye]

By the way, Euclid; can you make a post about managing to unlock the door? I mean, I know nobody has posted after your last post for Euclic yet, but in between Hylian not being around a whole lot and me not having anything to post about, nobody is going to. So yeah... Preatty please?

[HylianRose]

Well, I would have posted but it would have been very short and just consisting of Rose freaking out again. :\

[nautilusmp]

@Kaga (on my mobile, the quoting system just keeps failing, so had to call you this way): Is there anyone who can be brought here? If not, then I think the party should search for a while until they finally consider that it's only wasting their time and that it's better to try surviving with what's left.

On it.

EDIT: It's short, but I hope it provides a little bit of interaction.

[Kaga]

So, I went to see Catching Fire last weekend, and I realized that the Game Makers are just like GM's on the Guild, because they have to maintain their game by watching what everyone's doing and by throwing new threats into the game whenever things get slow so that there's always some sort of conflict that the players have to deal with. Also they get to come up with creative ways to kill people whenever they see fit.

Additionally they're also like GM from this roleplay because they get to forcefully drag a bunch of teenagers away from the lives they know and force them to participate in a game where their life is on the line and they have to deal with all the crazy bullshit thrown into said game, including vicious canines.

....Aaaaanywho, I'll try to post soon. When one person has to post twice in a row to get the thread moving, someone's doing something wrong. And that someone is me. :/

I'm not sure what you mean by "someone who can be brought here"... At any rate, I was just going to have Muse lead the group into the cafeteria so that we can finally let some interesting stuff happen, seeing as how the aftermath from some earlier scenes should still remain in there.

[Neobullseye]

I'll post a thingie tomorrow. Until then, you can act as if Leon fell asleep in the bed.

By the way, I think this is a great moment for the trio to either split up or for other people to join with them, due to the fact that they're not actively trying to run away from stuff and whatnot. I mean, correct me if I'm wrong on this, but yeah.
